RADIUS Server Configuration

Overview

The following guide covers steps to configure MetaAccess NAC as a RADIUS server. By configuring MetaAccess NAC as a RADIUS server, multiple options become available to the environment:

• A RADIUS authentication server with the ability to support the following authentication types:

  • MAC authentication
  • EAP-PEAP (Direct Active Directory Authentication)

• Ability to conditionally proxy RADIUS server requests to any number of upstream RADIUS servers.

• Ability to assign a specific set of RADIUS attributes on association. The specific attributes available will depend on the vendor that is chosen and can include:

  • VLAN assignments
  • Vendor specific profiles or roles
  • ACL names

• Ability to perform enforcement actions using just the RADIUS NAS device.
